Kathryn and Shaun booked me a year and a half ago, and I just can’t believe how quickly the time has flown! They had been meticulously planning their big day for so long, and Kathryn and I kept in touch on email. I am probably one of the few photographers that don’t get put off by rain. I love the rain – and along with the rain came the most stunning gray clouds and the most perfect light. It was one of those weddings where just everything was cool – black and white Baroque theme for the decor, excited bridesmaids that totally fussed around the bride, a dress to die for, ‘Audrey Hepburn-esque’ bride, and a doting groom. It was as if the day unfolded like a movie, and moments were just happening the whole day and I, of course, was in photographers heaven! “Adamant Soundz” (adamobile@mweb.co.za) kicked off the music for the evening and had everyone on the dance floor! Flowerheart created the most stunning flower displays using white roses.
Shaun and Kathryn – you were both such troopers in the rain, and I had a blast being your photographer!
Helga Bridal did the most naturally beautiful make-up and hair.
What a stunning wedding, Monica! Beautiful pics. I love that last one on the dancefloor!
Monica, we have no words…you are the BEST. Thank you for your infectious energy all day
We loved having you there. You have given us the most amazing memories and we are dying to see the rest. Lots of love, Kath and Shaun. xxx
Monica, we were so moved + blown away by all the pics. It was emotional for both of us. We had tears when we went through them. You definitely are talented my girl! xxx Mom and Jean
Absolutely stunning Monica! You are GENIUS!!!! I just love your photo style! AWESOME as always…
Hugs!!!!
Monica, these pics are amazing! Was great to meet you and see how you work, look forward to seeing you again at future weddings over the upcoming busy season.

Adam (Adamant Soundz)
Really impressive pics Monica. Especially with the light and backdrops not coming to the party on the day.
Looking forward to seeing the whole album. I will definitely recommend you.
Wow Monica… Kath is right, there are NO words! Thanks for making us feel SO at ease during the day, u truly are amazing and your photos are out of this world! x
Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog! I’m still kind of a newbie, so encouragement from photographers like you is wonderful.
Great pics and well done for taking advantage of the lovely soft rainy light – pics look very romantic and stunning!! Waiting to see MORE!!!! Thanks for making such an important contribution to Kath and Shaun’s big day! (I was the drunk one in the brown dress)
ps. how did you do the dancefloor shot? Its awesome!!
Hi Melanie – I used a slow shutter speed with the camera set on a tripod. Then got Kath and Shaun to stand still while everyone else danced – the shutter was slow enough (1sec) to record them sharp and everyone else moving.
What amazing shots! Kathryn, I would so have loved to be there. You were an absolutely stunning bride. My congratulations and best wishes to you both, and may the rest of your life together be as beautiful as that day clearly was. Love from Boston, C.J.
